23 Xbox 720 mockups that probably got it wrong

Could Microsoft's next console look anything like these?

A skewed look at the future

The Xbox One, 720, Durango, or whatever it ends up being called will be unveiled next week. And unlike at the PlayStation 4 reveal, we bet that Microsoft will show what the console actually looks like when its revealed. Good news for potential consumers, but it also means the many fan-created pieces of concept art for the system will soon be obsolete.

So, before the work of these console dreamers is obsolete, we found a number of next-gen Xbox designs that probably look nothing like the final version of the system. Some are more plausible than others, but before reality intrudes, take a look at these mockups and feel free to imagine a system like any these under your TV.

The see-thru

Who needs a touch pad, second screen, or share button when you have the gaming equivalent of a glass bottom boat?

Smooth operator

Another design that removes the edges in a style similar to Apple. That doesnt leave much room for little details like power buttons, though well give the artist extra credit for conceiving the box art too.

The four-hander

Yeah, this one has to be a joke. Otherwise, it was designed by someone with very odd hands.

The too literal

X marks the spot?

In less than a week well hopefully know what the next Xbox will finally look like, and itll likely look nothing like these. Still we can hope that in 2016 when they release a second iteration of the system, maybe Microsoft will look to these designs for more inspiration (but probably wont).
